When you have turned 40, it is like you need to have a personal swot team for your health – your doctor, chiropractor, physiotherapist, massage therapist (on speed dial), personal trainer, psychologist and a registered nutritionist and dietitian.

In our 20s + 30s, we were focused on our careers, our relationships, and building our lives.

Looking for a fresh and simple side dish to bring to your next get together? Try this Fresh Mediterranean Kitchen Sink Salad.

Need a fresh and flavourful recipe for summer entertaining? Try this Peach Salsa. It is colorful, crunchy, sweet and acidic, yet fresh-tasting.

I recently had a group of dietitians and registered nutritionists to my house for a networking meeting. I chose to serve this Peach Salsa recipe for its visual and taste appeal, pairing well with salty scoop-type crackers and a glass of crisp white wine.

Whether you are heading to the mountains for a hike, enjoying some of our city’s bike pathways or being active in your neighbourhood, make sure to fuel your family’s active summer day with nutritious foods!

Just like we put fuel into our vehicles to help them run, our bodies need to be fueled with premium food for our summer activities.

I'd love to hear your tips and strategies you use to stay well while traveling for a conference.
